All of our pledges added together sustain our church, and commitments of all sizes are appreciated and needed. We are hoping for an 8-13% increase (10% to make it easy!), which includes equity-based salary adjustments for our lowest wage ranges, adding a social justice coordinator position, and supporting continued exploration for building our future.

Annual financial commitment supporting the church year
6/01/2023-5/31/2024

Dear Members and Friends of First UU Church of Rochester,

Welcome to the 2023 Pledge Drive! We are reaching out to you to ask you to make a financial commitment to sustain our beloved church by submitting a pledge in support of the church fiscal year beginning June 1, 2023.

For those who may be new to this annual practice, the pledge drive directly supports the church’s operating budget for the coming new year. Following in the footsteps of our UU forebears since 1866, we ask for your participation and generous support so that together we can continue our mission to nurture spiritual growth and practice justice.

All of our pledges added together sustain our church, and commitments of all sizes are appreciated and needed. 

This year’s pledge drive begins on March 5 and ends on March 31. During this time, please visit with members of the pledge team in the lobby on Sundays between services.

Your pledge can be completed online using Realm or the church web site’s Online Form. If you prefer a hard-copy form – Download and print HERE or pick one up at church at the pledge table. 

Look for more updates about the 2023 Pledge Drive in your weekly eNews, and thank you for your ongoing support as we tend the flame together!
